- Precise load handling
Rocla ART
The Automated Reach Truck (ART) is a multipurpose solution designed to lift up to 1600 kg in aisles with free space as narrow as 2.85 m and well-suited to large warehousing operations.
With several models available, we can offer solutions tailored to customer needs. New and innovative software and sensor technologies considerably increase load-handling speed, and the 10 m lifting capacity and agile turning radius aim to fulfil the requirements of the most common warehouses and make ART a great companion for other workers and vehicles in the facility.
Designed to meet the ISO 3691-4 safety standard requirements and in line with the rest of our offering, ART features several safety features, including safety scanners and residual load monitoring. Safety is complemented by fluency-enhancing accessories, such as the Proximity Detection System (PDS), which improves the coexistence of AGVs, lift trucks, and people in a shared warehouse environment.
The unique safety installation creates a dynamic field in the moving direction, which allows the vehicle to turn faster. The residual load monitoring constantly monitors speed, load weight, height, and reach position.
During load handling, collision detection ensures the operation is performed efficiently.
ART is the winner of the Red Dot Design Award 2025.
Applications
Mixed fleet
A mixed fleet is an approach to intralogistics in which automated and manual material-handling solutions work together as a coordinated operation.
A mixed fleet combines AGVs, forklifts, warehouse equipment, software, automation systems, and human operators to leverage the strengths of each and create safer, more efficient, and more productive material flows.
While AGVs can perform repetitive transport operations safely, reliably, and efficiently, human operators provide the flexibility, adaptability, and problem-solving capabilities that many operations still require.
Let’s start with a consultation to explore this option for your particular operations.
Pallet racking
Pallet racking is the most common racking method for unit loads and makes individual pallets easily accessible. This storage method has a low capital cost and allows you to easily adjust and supplement the racks.
With automation, you can turn your shelf racking even more efficient.
Whether your rack is low or reaches a height of up to 10 m, your aisle is wide or narrow, and your traffic is one-way or two-way, we will help you find the perfect solution for your needs.
Block storage
Block storage is a storage method for pallets and products of uniform size. It is space-efficient and requires minimal investment.
High storage density and ample space create good starting points for efficient storage: When goods are packed tightly, and all articles on the pallets form an even surface, vertical stacking of pallets is viable. A high volume increases the solution’s effectiveness, so Block storage is ideal for applications with large quantities of the same article.
We understand the possibilities and limitations of block storage, and we want to help you get the most from it.
Pallet gravity-flow racking
Pallet gravity-flow racking offers compact storage for high-frequency goods in settings with a variety of articles.
Gravity flow racking is used in many parts of the manufacturing industry and is well-suited for work-in-progress storage, for example. It enables the first-in, first-out (FIFO) principle.
In this method, the racking is sloped and equipped with rollers. The goods move forward from intake to retrieval under the force of gravity. The goods can roll on undriven conveyors with braking rollers, driven rollers, or wheeled load carriers.
Mobile racking
Mobile racking combines the advantages of conventional rackingwhile utilising space exceptionally efficiently, as the available area has been carefully utilised. With this solution, the pallets are always accessible, even though they are arranged more closely together than in conventional shelving.
In mobile racking, the racking rests on motor-driven trolleys and is transported using floor-installed rails. A dense storage unit with a moving aisle can be formed from a series of racks. Mobile racking offers very high space utilisation but low handling capacity.
Rocla AGVs work well with mobile shelves, creating an efficient, space-saving solution.
Conveyor pick-up/ drop-off
Conveyors are often used to move goods between processes and to and from warehouses. Interfacing with conveyors is common for our AGVs.
Conveyors are a convenient method of moving goods from production to the warehouse or from the warehouse to production or shipment.
AGVs operate with conveyors the same way as manual forklifts do. AGVs and conveyors interact safely by using I/O signals to negotiate when an AGV is allowed to enter a conveyor.
We can also help you find the right conveyor for your operations.
